Hello I'm Susan

I had my gastric bypass 16th November 2015 and just under a month later I was back in hospital because my stomach had closed and had to be reopened after that I tolerated food and everything normally but on June 22nd this year I ended up being rushed to a&e crying in pain and constantly being sick had to have CT scan X-rays and a camera down my throat and then after 2 days in hospital I had ultrasound done and found out I had gallstones and after 5months in crippling pain to the point I was on morphine and not able to go to work for the whole time I had my gallbladder out on 7th November 2016 I had 29 stones (yes I kept them to show my nephews as they were very concerned when I told them what was wrong with me and constantly asked if I still had rocks in my tummy) I was released the next day and stopped needing pain relief after 3 day, I am now 3weeks post op and last few days it feels like I've been punched in side of my tummy so sharp pain comes and go but their is a general pain there all the time plus it's been painful to eat anything want to know if anyone has experienced this. Please help going to see my doctor next thursday

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
